Prevent - Counter Terrorism
Prevent is a Home Office programme through which the Police work alongside other organisations to protect vulnerable people from being exploited or radicalised by extremists.
Anyone concerned that someone is at risk or showing signs of radicalisation or extremism is encouraged to call the Prevent advice line: 0800 011 3764.
Further useful information which emphasises early detection and provides a wealth of useful information and guidance can be found on the website:
